Close to two-thirds of Canadians support a public inquiry into foreign interference in elections, and 58 percent of Canadians believe foreign governments have successfully influenced voting in the country, according to a new poll.
In the Research Co. survey, one-third of Canadians, or 33 percent, responded that it was “very likely” that China has attempted to influence elections in Canada this century, a number which rises to 37 percent among British Columbia residents, and to 45 percent in Canadians aged 55 and over.
